Misty

        things that are misty are certainly never clear
        the mind is clouded with ’something’ she fears
        that ’something’ will suffice one day
        and then all her pain will go away.

        in the meantime she sits and thinks
        takes herself a little drink, it takes away what she thinks,
        she then unscrews the bottle of the pills
        takes a handful to her mouth, and swallows.

        next day she wakes in a strange place
        though things are clouded in her mind
        she vaguely remembers what she did
        that ’something’ has not surfaced in her mind
